  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries do not thaw if using frozen
  • For the Streusel Topping Optional:
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans optional

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • Muffin pan
  • Paper liners or nonstick spray
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Hand or stand mixer (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with nonstick spray.
  2. Prepare the streusel topping (if using): Mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
  5. Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in sour cream and vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined.
  7. Gently fold in the blueberries. (Tip: Toss blueberries with 1 tbsp of flour to prevent them from sinking.)
  8. Fill the muffin cups to the top with batter. Sprinkle with streusel topping if using.
  9. Bake at 425°F for 5 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F (177°C) and bake for another 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  11. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Muffins can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
